  1. ​They were blown out by us... us! Us who were still be led by Mr. Josh Greer! No wonder they feel so bad.
  2. I'll be a sophomore this year. Before my freshman year, I learned about UNT's rivalry with SMU although the all-time record is still lopsided in favor of the Ponies. Watching the Mean Green smack 'em a new one last year was great. Plus, I second the notion of the UTSA rivalry. I just wish we could beat them at something already. I'd also like to start something with Rice. I remember in 2013 when we beat the division-leading Owls at Apogee on Halloween and that eight-down stand within the 10-yard line, which I think was a defining moment of the Mean Green's season. I wish we were able to get Baylor, Texas, A&M, Tech, or TCU every year. And the first team we can manage to beat can be our P5 rival.
  3. I would love to see a 1-and-1 with A&M, but would be buying tickets if we were just playing in College Station anyways. What I'm afraid of if a 1-and-1 happens is A&M taking over Apogee, and because UNT isn't always a first-choice school, I bet there's a large group of UNT students that actually support the Aggies more than the Mean Green.
  4. The second-highest jump in attendance in 2014 was for a team that folded at the end of the year...
  5. Yep, let's make sure our homecoming game is against the one sure victory.
  6. TJ announced on his Instagram last month that he was going pro.
  7. Even without head coaching experience, I think Mitchell has an advantage when it comes to public opinion. I think people will believe in her/expect more from a former Mean Green Eagle, and possibly be more sympathetic if we're still a 10 win team in two years.
  8. A win over a P5.. how marvelous.. too bad we can't rush the field in Iowa City, though.
  9. In my other bracket, I had Wisconsin beating Michigan State in the Final. Let's see how this works out!
  10. I like seeing all three Texas C-USA opponents play in our house which should hopefully help attendance.
  11. Daxter Miles, Jr. from WVU says his team will beat 'em to it, saying the Wildcats "don't play hard". http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/tournament/2015/story/_/id/12557302/west-virginia-mountaineers-feeling-confident-going-ncaa-tournament-game-kentucky-wildcats
  12. Will it ever change? All the Texas teams at home one year, then all of them on the road? Is this what we're stuck with as long as we're in C-USA?
  13. What!? We can't rush the field? *transfers to SMU, where any win will result in us rushing the field*
  14. Oh I know, I was just updating. I know UConn struggled in the first round against... St. John's right?... last year, too. It can go two ways: you keep barely getting by until one team you can't overcome, or a team struggles for a game or two, but plays well enough to still get by then gets some momentum. Meanwhile #1 and #2 in the East Region are out - Villanova and Virginia. I actually had Virginia losing to Michigan State in my bracket, but I had Villanova in my Final Four.
  15. Arkansas and Louisville barely squeezed by in their first games. I was really rooting for Wofford, too.
  16. Not against Notre Dame!
  17. Fun fact: Me and my girlfriend road tripped to Myrtle Beach for a few days. On Friday, we ate at the same McAlister's as the Southern Miss softball team in Monroe, Louisiana. Since it was [Mean Green] Friday, I was topped in UNT gear.
  18. Meanwhile, another SEC team is struggling - just turned on this Arkansas/Wofford game. Very good game.
  19. LSU misses their last 12 field goal attempts, 6 free throw attempts.
  20. My heart sank as Anya got the roll on that hookshot.
  21. I love all the creative statistics the athletics department makes up to try to make us feel good. Considering we're only going to play 15-17 home games a year, is 7th most home games in a season (10) really that impressive?
  22. My bracket looks terrible. I have Gonzaga losing in the first round to the NDSU Bison who upset Oklahoma last year - that's my boldest call. I had 10 Ohio State defeating 7 VCU which they did. I had 13 Harvard defeating 4 North Carolina - The Tar Heels had been inconsistent all year and Harvard has won a game in two straight NCAA Tourneys as a double-digit seed. The Crimson even had a two-point lead in the last minute after a furious rally, but UNC won on a 2-on-1 fast break layup. I had 9 Purdue defeating 8 Cincy - another incredible game that did not work out in my favor. I had 12 SFA defeating 5 Utah - close game but not over. I have 14 Albany defeating 3 Oklahoma - Oklahoma got upset last year and Albany came close, I believe. I have 11 Davidson defeating 6 Providence. I finally had Notre Dame defeating Kentucky down the line. My Final Four: Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Villanova, Georgetown. Villanova wins it all.
  23. His Tigers are looking pretty good against the higher seeded NC State right now, too.
  24. Does this mean we technically beat Iowa State?
  25. Benford trying to preserve the game (and his career I wish) by keep burning timeouts. Just let it go already... I need to stop watching. But this performance is like a car wreck, I can't turn my head away.
